Therefore, Shao Wanwan pays special attention to the number of members and their satisfaction level.

Because the number of members allows us to calculate the minimum guaranteed sales amount for each year, and also allows us to create a basic customer profile.

Shao Wanwan had compiled statistics on the distribution of members, and to her great surprise, students only accounted for half of them.

So she immediately increased the proportion of tobacco, alcohol and tea she purchased, and then abandoned some expensive cosmetic sets that seemed to have high profit margins but could not be sold for several days and took up a lot of shelf space.

Then there were red wines and fruit wines.

Sure enough, the turnover increased rapidly. With the rapid economic development, more and more people are holding wedding banquets, and various business banquets require cigarettes and alcohol. Shao Wanwan knew that the supermarkets around her would focus on serving students.

Shao Wanwan, however, began to organize the flowing water.

She planned to take the bank statements to General Manager Qi to apply for a distributorship for high-end cigarettes and alcohol.

This allows us to get a lower price.

Mr. Qi is a businessman who values ​​profits the most, which is why he started helping her. It was only because of the Jiang family's influence. But she needs to use her abilities to get him to grant her more agency rights.

Once Shao Wanwan finds out and the market becomes more regulated, she will definitely switch to a supplier with a lower price. But right now, it is especially important that the product is genuine.

After Zhao Hui finished her work, she came over to talk to her, "Boss Song has run into trouble."

Shao Wanwan looked up. "Tell me in detail."

He casually grabbed the sunflower seeds that people usually use to pass the time when there are no customers, and looked at them with an expression of listening to gossip.

“A student bought counterfeit alcohol from him for his birthday. A whole dorm got alcohol poisoning and had to have their stomachs pumped. I heard the compensation will be more than that.” Zhao Hui held up five fingers.

Shao Wanwan gasped.

Boss Song deserved it, but the students were completely innocent.

But that's the current situation. In many places, genuine and counterfeit goods are sold together, and even the sellers themselves can't tell which are real and which are fake.

Counterfeit cigarettes and alcohol, in particular, have extremely high profit margins.

When profits are twenty times the initial investment, people are willing to do anything, even risk their lives.

After Zhao Hui finished speaking, she felt a wave of fear. "I'm so glad you insisted on buying from Boss Qi. Although the purchase price is high, it's guaranteed to be genuine. When I ran my small shop before, I didn't dare to sell much alcohol. Cigarettes require a business license, but alcohol can be bought anywhere. I was really afraid of getting something wrong with my drink."

Zhao Hui was telling the truth.

Determining whether something is genuine or fake is too troublesome.

In particular, their supermarket has Moutai and Wuliangye on its liquor shelves. If someone were to sell counterfeit Moutai, they would be in jail. But even so, some people still take the risk.

"Wanwan, but you only have wine boxes on your wine cabinet. Every time a customer pays, they have to go to the back to get them. What's the point of that?" Zhao Hui glanced at the expensive wines on the display cabinet behind her, which were actually empty.

Shao Wanwan sighed. The security situation at this time was far worse than it would be decades later.

Back then, there were sky eyes everywhere.

If you get robbed or robbed, you'll lose several months' worth of work.

This was the only way Shao Wanwan could reduce the risk.

Because there's another security door inside, and the windows are also fitted with security bars. Most importantly, there are two or three security cameras, which can always provide evidence.

The goal is simply to increase the cost of crime.

Shao Wanwan didn't want to become a victim in a robbery news story.

The cameras everywhere are now truly connected to the internet; they're not just there to serve as a deterrent.

“If we sell genuine products, we’ll be targeted, because everyone knows they’re real,” Shao Wanwan said seriously.

Zhao Hui used to run a small shop on campus; she didn't know that theft was rampant outside.

Zhao Hui rested her chin on her hand and said admiringly, "You're so young, how come you know so much? Compared to you, it's like I've wasted decades of my life."

"Sister Zhao, you're supporting Li Shuai all by yourself! Don't think like that. Everyone has different priorities. I'm a money-grubber, hehe." Shao Wanwan smiled playfully.

"By the way, Sister Zhao, my mother-in-law, Professor Jiang, is doing some business at the school. She wants to have dinner with me and Zheyuan, and she asked us to invite you along. She's very satisfied with how you took care of the camellias and kept the house so clean. She probably wants to express her gratitude in person. Do you want to go?" Shao Wanwan still wanted to respect Zhao Hui's opinion.

If Zhao Hui is unwilling to go, she will help Zhao Hui refuse.

To everyone's surprise, Zhao Hui immediately tensed up upon hearing this.

She stood up and asked, "Is this outfit okay for me today? Is my hair too oily? I haven't washed my hair in three days, and I haven't polished my shoes either. He's a big professor, and I look so unsophisticated. Will I embarrass him? I... I think I should just not go?"

It sounds like you want to go, but you feel it's a bit impolite to meet guests like that.

Shao Wanwan pursed her lips and said seriously, "I always keep my makeup bag under the counter. I'll do your makeup, and then we can polish your shoes, right? Sister Zhao, you're a great beauty, you have to believe in yourself."

Zhao Hui said anxiously, "I'm not good at speaking either. Will I embarrass you?"

"Professor Jiang is very approachable. It's just a casual meal, so don't worry. Besides, I'm here for you!" Shao Wanwan said after winking.

In fact, after the engagement, Shao Wanwan rarely saw Professor Jiang except at school.

Shao Wanwan never knew whether Professor Jiang was truly satisfied with her. She didn't care much about that, but she really didn't want Professor Jiang to have a stroke like the ones described in the book.

Although Professor Jiang had already undergone a check-up and was paying attention to her health, Shao Wanwan still decided to avoid hanging around him as much as possible.

Based on her experience reading various melodramatic domestic and palace intrigue novels before transmigrating into the book, most of the conflicts between people are not due to a lack of communication, but rather to too much communication. To put it bluntly, it's about talking too much nonsense and always trying to integrate into certain people, certain circles, or even into other people's hearts.

In reality, things teach people everything in one go. People don't understand things by being bothered by words, but by things. And things are created by people. Maintaining boundaries between people can reduce problems by as much as 80%.

Of course, the remaining 20% ​​will also present problems regardless of who she's with, and Shao Wanwan will not shy away from these issues; she will certainly face them head-on.

Professor Jiang didn't seem to be putting on airs like a mother-in-law; this was the first time she had taken the initiative to invite the young couple to dinner since their engagement.

Since it was an elder's invitation to dinner, it wouldn't be appropriate to go empty-handed. Shao Wanwan selected two boxes of good tea and some well-regarded skincare products from the supermarket, and then said to Zhao Hui, "Sister Zhao, I've also prepared yours. You can put it on my tab."

Zhao Hui didn't stand on ceremony with Shao Wanwan and said with a smile, "Then thank you, Wanwan. I'll go settle Li Shuai in, and then we'll go together at the supermarket entrance!"

Shao Wanwan nodded.
